Embodiment
Extraction efficiency loss major cause in phosphorescence equipment is that Energy Coupling is in the plasma model of metallic cathode.OLED based on conjugated polymers has fluorescence (singlet) the emission kind of aiming at electrode plane usually, and therefore may have high extraction efficiency and because being coupled on the plasma model loss of the lower calculating caused.Yet these these equipment have low IQE because with tri-state again the electric charge carrier of combination do not launch, this has just offseted it and has aimed at advantage.
A kind of verified aligning advantage of extracting method use fluorescence (singlet emission) polymeric film of light from active mechanical floor.In order to improve fluorescence equipment, must improve IQE by forcing all electric charge carriers compound under singlet (Recombine or Recombination).The method of the IQE of the singlet emission in a kind of OLED of increasing is called " superfluorescence (Extra-fluorescence) ".Superfluorescence is by inserting and working just like the mixolimnion of the heavy metal of iridium.Layer in addition is location in the following manner: make it only affect charge transfer (Charge Transfer; Be called for short CT) state, described charge transfer state is the precursor of exciton.By allowing these exciton precursors to mix, meeting under some energy rank restraint condition, can suppress non-emissive tri-state and form.The OLED of the fluorescent material based on through aiming at can have the high IQE value identical with OLED based on phosphor material because of superfluorescence.

Polyoxyethylene glycol 4,4'-(the bromo-9H-fluorenes-9 of 2,7-bis-, 9-bis-bases) diphenol (dibromo BPF) is prepared as follows.Dibromo BPF (0.407g, 0.8mmol) and methylsulfonyl PEG-5000 monomethyl ether (10g, 2.0mmol) are refluxed in the acetone with salt of wormwood (0.276g, 2.0mmol) at 50mL.This reaction is heated 4 days when refluxing, and now, reaches the quantitative conversion of being determined by HPLC.Solvent removes by rotary evaporation, and residual substance is used dichloromethane extraction.The methylene dichloride water rinses twice and rinses once by saturated aqueous sodium chloride.The dichloromethane solution dried over mgso, and solvent removes by rotary evaporation, thus obtain the polyoxyethylene glycol product containing the remaining methylsulfonyl PEG-5000 of 30wt% that has an appointment.Monomer is used not being further purified in situation.In 1H NMR 3.61 and the peak value at 3.36ppm place can not correctly quadrature because the molecular weight of PEG5000 is inaccurate and remaining methylsulfonyl PEG still stays in product.1H NMR(400MHz, CD2Cl2) 7.66(d, 2H), 7.53-7.49(m, 4H) 7.47(d, 4H), 6.82(d, 4H), 3.61(s, about 1270H), 3.36(s, 8H).
Photophysics with the polymkeric substance of long alkyl group side chain
General procedure
Spectrum after the optical excitation of polymkeric substance and temporal resolution kinetics are used the instrument F920 of Edinburg company (Edinburgh) photofluorometer in 469nm(gram Qazz company (Picoquant), about 70ps pulsewidth) or 355nm (about 500ps pulsewidth JDS Uniphase Corp. (JDS Uniphase)) under with pulse laser, excite to obtain.Detector is through the MCP-PMT of spectrum correction R3809(shore pine company (Hamamatsu)).Chlorobenzene (aldrich company) is as the solvent medium of the solution of test material.Adjust strength of solution, so that the optical density(OD) of different solutions is less than 1.0 in the 450nm-470nm scope.
The general procedure for preparing clean film be using the material dissolves of 1% solution as polymkeric substance in the aromatic solvent as toluene, dimethylbenzene or chlorobenzene, and via rotational casting, be deposited on subsequently on clean quartz slide.The typical case is revolved speed between 0.8krpm and 3krpm.Allow film dry before use, but generally can not carry out heating power annealing.During photoluminescence experiment, film is placed in the nitrogen atmosphere through purifying to stop experimental session because of may degrading that photo-oxidation causes.
Example 11: solution luminescent spectrum
Example 4(P2), example 6(P4) and example 7(P5) the solution Absorption and emission spectra of polymkeric substance shown in Fig. 2 A.Maintain in whole experiment that instrument is aimed at and intensity, and therefore the photoluminescence integrated intensity has direct comparability and can be for relative photoluminescence quantum yield is provided.The BTD-30 sample has high-luminous-efficiency, and therefore luminous quantum efficiency relates to the BTD-30 sample.Spectrum shows to launch shifts to longer wavelength, and this is because selenium replaces sulphur and conjugation increases caused via the phenyl on naphthyl substituted dithiazole comonomer.
The luminescent spectrum of polymeric film is shown in Fig. 2 B and 2C.The emission wavelength of observing in 500nm to 700nm scope in these spectrum is consistent with the feature of observing in same wavelength ranges in the solution phase spectrum.Along with comonomer (that is, BTD, NTD, BSeD, NSeD) relative proportion increases, people also observe the little skew in the (not shown) luminescent emission maximum.
Example 12: the time resolved spectroscopy of pure material
The luminous behavior of polymkeric substance is also depended on comonomer and for the relative load of fluorenes monomer.Fig. 3 illustrates the optical excitation decay of luminescence curve of BTD multipolymer shown in example 3 and 4 afterwards.Also shown is after being excited the F22-BTD-30 polymkeric substance (example 4) in solution and by derived from 9 under 468nm, the corresponding decay of luminescence curve of the polymkeric substance that the equivalent unit of 9-dioctyl fluorine and BTD (F8-BTD) forms, wherein BTD (F8-BTD) is purchased from the fast company of Sang Mumai (Sumation).
Fig. 4 A to 4C is illustrated in the example 6(P4 in chlorobenzene solution after 468nm laser excitation, F22-BSeD-30) polymkeric substance, example 4(F22-BTD-30) polymkeric substance and example 7(P5, F22-NTD-10) the temporal resolution decay of luminescence spectrum of polymkeric substance.In each case, the detection wavelength is made as and approaches Emission Spectrum Peals, and makes the single index decay of the following form of data fitting:
A(t)=C?exp(-(t/τ))
Observation is used this functional form usually to indicate the leading single order relaxation that is derived from single excited state to exist to the matching that is satisfied with of data.The single index matching is extremely useful, because it distributes to the decay of luminescence process by the leading time constant.
From the temporal resolution decay of the film of polymer materials shown in Fig. 5 A to 5C.In some cases, be fitted to the matching be entirely satisfactory that the single index function does not cause the decay of luminescence curve.This normally indicates a plurality of competition energy or charge transfer process in film or a plurality of emissions position.Alleviating these effects may be complicated a little.In order to compare in the future, we use two exponential forms on the phenomenon level for data modeling:
A(t)=C
1exp(-(t/τ
1))+C
2exp(-(t/τ
2)
A kind of situation (example 7, F22-NTD-10) under, the extension exponential fitting has following form:
A(t)=C?exp(-(t/τ)
a)
This particular form is generally used for describing the sample that presents a large amount of rate constants, and the film data are used this function to present the interchain interaction that causes the interchain energy migration through this true hint existence of improved matching.Time constant through matching presents in table 4.
Example 13: the charge transfer that energy time is differentiated decay and arrived other materials
Purchased from the PVK of aldrich company (Aldrich) via the concentrated solution of the polymkeric substance in methylene dichloride (107mg/ml) in the boiling deionized water repeatedly precipitation obtain purifying.The gained sedimentable matter is dry a couple of days in vacuum drying oven (50 ℃) subsequently, until no longer observe and obtain further weight loss.FIrpic(iridium (III) two (2-(4,6-difluorophenyl) pyridine-N, C2 ') pyridine carboxylic acid is ADS065BE) in statu quo to use.Chlorobenzene is purchased from aldrich company and be in statu quo to use.F8-BT is purchased from the fast company of Sang Mumai and be in statu quo to use.Each prepares PVK, F8-BT and FIrpic (l%w/v) solution naturally in laboratory environment in chlorobenzene.FIrpic:PVK solution mixes corresponding 1% stock solution by the ratio with 0.2:1 and prepares.Subsequently, add 1%F8-BT solution to FIrpic:PVK solution, thereby form F8-BT:FIrpic:PVK solution, its ultimate density ratio is 0.1:0.2:1.Prepared in a similar manner by the solution of other luminescence polymer materials that mix with FIrpic and PVK for spin coating.
The time-resolved emission spectrum of F8-BT (50) and F22-BT (30) is shown in Figure 6, and result is summarized in table 5.To decay in early days (0.5ns to 5ns) be fitted on single index and cause producing for the time constant of the 1.54ns of F8BTD (50) and for the time constant of the 1.87ns of F22-BTD (30).These time constants are very similar with the time constant that obtains the self-cleaning film, and therefore people can not observe any significance degree charge transfer cancellation obtained from the polymkeric substance to the substrate material.
All time constants be take ns as unit.
